That's amazing. </p><p>We're so excited and we couldn't be more pleased with everyone who's supported us. As talented as our speakers are, one of the biggest draws is you and all the wonderful conversations that will surely ensue.
</p><p>We still have a long way to go, of course, so please help spread the word. Your skeptical boss who isn't quite sure about this games thing? That skeptical aunt who thinks games are a waste of time? That design-minded friend who's been looking for a new creative outlet? Twofivesix is for them.</p><p>More updates to come!</p><p>Best,</p><p>Jamin, Tom, and team Kill Screen</p><p>P.S.This is actually our fourth Kickstarter project, but we never had the foresight to capture the moment of launching one...until now.
